When tk event handling is driven by IDLE's run loop, a confusing
and distracting queue.EMPTY traceback context is no longer added
to tk event exception tracebacks. The traceback is now the same
as when event handling is driven by user code. Patch based on
a suggestion by Serhiy Storchaka.

Editor and output windows only see an empty last prompt line.
This simplifies the code and fixes a minor bug when newline is inserted.
Sys.ps1, if present, is read on Shell start-up, but is not set or changed.

Even if one selects a font that defines a limited subset of the unicode
Basic Multilingual Plane, tcl/tk will use other fonts that define a
character. The expanded example give users of non-Latin characters
a better idea of what they might see in the IDLE shell and editors.
To make room for the expanded sample, frames on the Font tab are
re-arranged. The Font/Tabs help explains a bit about the additions.

Passing a widget instead of an flist with a root widget opens the option of
creating a browser frame that is only part of a window. Passing a full file
name instead of pieces assumed to come from a .py file opens the possibility
of browsing python files that do not end in .py.

The original module-level class and method browser became a module
browser, with the addition of module-level functions, years ago.
Nested classes and functions were added yesterday. For back-
compatibility, the virtual event <<open-class-browser>>, which
appears on the Keys tab of the Settings dialog, is not changed.

Canceling timers prevents a warning message when test_idle completes.
(This is the minimum fix needed before upcoming releases.)

When apply ConfigDialog changes, call .reload on each class with non-key options.
Change ParenMatch so that updates affect current instances.

'Strip trailing whitespace' is not limited to spaces. Wording caters to beginners who
do know know the meaning of 'whitespace'. Multiline string literals are not skipped.

IDLE calls tcl/tk update in the background in order to make live
interaction and experimentatin with tkinter applications much easier.
(cherry picked from commit 98758bc67f)
About 10 IDLE features were implemented as supposedly optional
extensions. Their different behavior could be confusing or worse for
users and not good for maintenance. Hence the conversion.
The main difference for users is that user configurable key bindings
for builtin features are now handled uniformly. Now, editing a binding
in a keyset only affects its value in the keyset. All bindings are
defined together in the system-specific default keysets in config-
extensions.def. All custom keysets are saved as a whole in config-
extension.cfg. All take effect as soon as one clicks Apply or Ok.
The affected events are '<<force-open-completions>>', '<<expand-word>>',
'<<force-open-calltip>>', '<<flash-paren>>', '<<format-paragraph>>',
'<<run-module>>', '<<check-module>>', and '<<zoom-height>>'. Any
(global) customizations made before 3.6.3 will not affect their keyset-
specific customization after 3.6.3. and vice versa.

Part 3 of 3. Remove old highlight functions and load_config as this functionality is now contained within classes. Patch by Cheryl Sabella.

Patch 2 of 3, to avoid horrendous diff. Create highlights page from new HighPage class instead of old ConfigDialog methods and change tests to match. Patch by Cheryl Sabella.

This is the first half of a patch similar to the one for for bpo-31205. It is being split into 2 PRs to avoid what happened with PR-3096 -- an incomprehensible diff that could not be cleanly backported to 3.6. This half copies several methods of ConfigDialog and turns them into a new class. Patch by Cheryl Sabella.

(cherry picked from commit e36d9f5568)
Idlelib.calltips.get_argspec now uses inspect.signature instead of inspect.getfullargspec, like help() does. This improves the signature in the call tip in a few different cases, including builtins converted to provide a signature. A message is added if the object is not callable, has an invalid signature, or if it has positional-only parameters.
